Billed as "John Grisham meets Dave Barry." Solomon and Lord are a Florida courthouse Odd Couple: Solomon the sleazy, sloppy male defense lawyer and Lord the neat, by-the-book female prosecutor. Of course, romantic sparks fly. The mysteries here are excellent—serious plots with appropriate red herrings and surprise reveals. The humor comes from the sharp-witted repartee between (and seeming incompatibility of) the main characters, as well as the entertaining supporting cast. The characters are easy to like, and the books fun to read. I recommend reading them in order. They are all very good.

Kill All the Lawyers - In book 3 of the series, an old client is out for revenge. As good as the first two books, a little darker, with a little deeper character development for Steve and Victoria. Story 5, craft 4, humor 4.

Beach bum lawyer partners with prissy shopaholic lawyer. Not bad for a dollar. Not quite as funny as it thinks it is, and characters not quite as believable as they need to be.
